What are the four major tennis tournaments?

The Four Major Tennis Opens (i.e., the Four Grand Slams of Tennis) are the abbreviations of the Australian Open, Wimbledon, French Open, and U.S. Open.

The first winner of the four tennis Grand Slams in history was Donald Boogie, who won it in 1938.

Introduction:

The Australian Open is managed by the Australian Tennis Center. The Australian Open is the earliest event among the four major Opens every year. The event is scheduled from 1- February.

The French Open began in 1891. At the beginning, only French players participated. It was not until 1925 that foreign players were allowed to participate. Since 1928, the French Open has been held every year from the end of May to the beginning of June at the Roland Garros Tennis City on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne in the west of Paris. The competition venue is a red clay court, so it is also called clay court tennis. This tennis city covers an area of ??8 hectares and has 20 formal competition venues, including 3 large competition venues with stands around them. The largest center court has nearly 16,000 seats. Over the past 75 years, the French Open has received a cumulative audience of more than 3.5 million people.

The Wimbledon Tennis Championships are held regularly from the last week of June to the beginning of July every year and have formed a tradition. Qualification is determined based on the accumulated points won in various major competitions in the previous year. The Wimbledon Tennis Championships are jointly organized by the All England Club and the British Lawn Tennis Association, but the All England Club actually controls the tournament, including the millions of dollars in ticket sales for each tournament. Today's Wimbledon matches have more than 300,000 spectators, and more than 500 million people watch live television broadcasts.

The U.S. Open Tennis Championships began in 1881.

Each competition is held from the end of August to the beginning of September every year at the National Tennis Center in Flushing Park, New York, USA.

Since 1997 the competition has been held at the newly built Arthur Ashe Tennis Center.

The center covers an area of ??18.2 hectares and has 33 competition venues. The venues are also hard courts. To win in the competition, athletes must have good physical strength. It takes more time for athletes to score each point than in other major championships, and there will be more fights.
